Siemens, BP, and Prumo Logística Invest R$ 7 Billion in Porto do Açu and Are Now Official Partners in the Thermoelectric Plants and Gas Terminals

The Porto do Açu signed a contract yesterday (03) with GNA (Gás Natural Açu), which has Siemens, BP, and Prumo Logística as partners. The deal consists of a lease agreement for land to construct thermoelectric plants and a LNG regasification terminal. GNA will invest over R$ 7 billion in the development of the two thermoelectric plants and the regasification terminal (LNG).

“This partnership reinforces that Açu is a rapidly growing O&G hub, and the port is increasingly strengthening its prominent position for the entire industry,” said José Magela, CEO of Porto do Açu. “This unprecedented project will develop the largest thermoelectric park in Latin America at Porto do Açu, generating 3GW of energy. It reaffirms Porto do Açu’s prominent position and strong long-term commitment,” commented Bernardo Perseke, CEO of GNA.

Works at the Thermoelectric Plant

At this moment, Andrade Gutierrez is in charge of the works, preparing the land and construction site, which will subsequently allow for the actual construction of the thermoelectric plant within Porto do Açu. More than 50% of the workers currently active there are from outside the region because the company preferred to leverage the workforce from other projects across Brazil in the final stages. However, when the thermoelectric plant begins construction, hiring will be done from residents of São João da Barra and other nearby cities. Interested individuals can submit their resumes at www.vagas.com.br/rede-de-empregabilidade.

In the special report we did when Andrade Gutierrez announced the works at Porto do Açu, some people who were there made comments, and some even managed to get in. If you want to see some of these people, check out the article where they comment here, this will serve as proof that the works are truly happening and validate the publications from our portal. Good luck to everyone.
